Surf-riding/Broaching Assessment within Second Generation Intact Stability Criteria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
This thesis focuses on the study of surf-riding phenomenon, that is one of the failure modes dealt by the Second Generation Intact Stability Criteria (SGISC).

« Sea, sex and sun » : la sexualité dans la mythologie du surf way of life

open access: yesGenre, Sexualité et Société, 2010
The “Surf way of life”, a lifestyle based on sensual pleasures, is often presented as “liberating”. Born in the fifties on californian beaches, surf riding is, rather than a sport, a “philosophy” or a “way of life” according to passionate surfers.

Les modes d’appropriations de l’espace « vague » sur le littoral français

open access: yesGéographie et Cultures, 2011
The surf riding experiencing known constant development over the past forty years and the entire French coastline is invested by riders: surfers, of course, but also windsurfers and kitesurfers.

‘Dancing about architecture’: The fraught practice and chequered history of writing about the physical act of wave riding

open access: yes, 2021
It has been said of music journalism, that writing about music is like dancing about architecture, a flawed and pointless exercise, the wrong medium for the artform. One might regard surf writing similarly.

Surging of Large Amplitude and Surf-riding of Ships in Following Seas

open access: yesJournal of the Society of Naval Architects of Japan, 1989
In the previous papers, the surf-riding of a ship in the regular following waves was examined by the self-running model tests as well as the numerical simulatione. It was clarified that the surf-riding occurs when the ship speed including the steady oscillatory component due to the surging motion, after the decay of the transitional motion, reaches the

On the Surf-riding of a Ship

open access: yesJournal of the Society of Naval Architects of Japan, 1982
When travelling in heavy following sea a ship is accelerated on the front slope of a wave and her velocity may become nearly the same as the wave celerity. This phenomenon is called surf-riding and may cause broaching-to, which is very dangerous situation for small craft.

Seakeeping time domain simulations for surf-riding/broaching: investigations toward a direct stability assessment

open access: yes, 2020
Seakeeping time domain simulations are carried out to capture the likelihood of a surf-riding and/or broaching event, with the aim to gain a further insight into the ship performance in stern quartering seas. The applied numerical tool, named PANSHIP, is

An Experimental and Numerical Study of Long Wave Run-Up on a Plane Beach

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2015
This research is to facilitate the current understanding of long wave dynamics at coasts and during on-land propagation; experimental and numerical approaches are compared against existing analytical expressions for the long wave run-up.

Optoelectronic Synaptic Devices Using Molecular Telluride Phase‐Change Inks for Three‐Factor Learning

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Optoelectronic synaptic devices based on solution‐processed molecular telluride GST‐225 phase‐change inks are demonstrated for three‐factor learning. A global optical signal broadcast through a silicon waveguide induces non‐volatile conductance updates exclusively in locally electrically flagged memristors.

Soft and Transient Bioelectronics Enabled by Polymer‐Free Ti3C2Tx MXene Hydrogels

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
We present Ti3C2Tx MXene hydrogel (MXgel) bioelectronics, a soft, flexible, and fully transient platform for high‐fidelity neural recording and stimulation. MXgel bioelectronics exhibit exceptional electrical conductivities, low electrochemical impedances, and high charge injection capacities.
